Overall a pretty complete spec.  A few items:

3.2.1.1 - Section could use some reformatting, as there are bullets
shown as parallel that are actually sub-bullets of a previous one.
Consider using some numbering here, maybe.

Yep, noticed this after I had sent out document, corrected now.

3.2.2.1 - What impact does this have on validation of the new elements
introduced here?


Xmllint will do the required relaxng syntax checking, any other
validation required will be done within auto_install client code itself,
manually.

Do you think I should be adding validation values in here ? as according
to Ethan this file is being obsoleted, and I'd like to limit the amount
of throw away code written.


No, I don't, just wanted to understand the impact.

3.2.2.4 (last bullet on page 15) - This phrasing is confusing: "Pool
name does not exist.  If pool name is specified in manifest, then this
pool will be overwritten."  I'm not sure what to expect - will an
existing, named pool be overwritten automatically?


Yes, if the the manifest contains a user specified pool name of
"my_new_pool", and this pool already exists on the target being
installed to then this pool will be overwritten.


That seems... dangerous. Wouldn't it be better to require a specific directive to overwrite an existing pool?

Dave
